I felt this whole thing dragging itself through blood and shame... and then turning around to look straight at it, which really did something to me, I swear. 😣

This poem is an undiluted reflection on this painful business called life. The arrival at writing as resistance towards the end is very moving. Poignant and deeply moving!

Thank you @Nabanita.

When I started writing, many things started to change for me and i believe it’s the same for many of us in here. We are not looking for fame but for clarity within the noises of life
